The United Methodist Economic Ministry exists to be in partnership with rural communities in western Maine to create healthy, sustainable communities within the region.

Description:
The United Methodist Economic Ministry operates a food pantry, thrift store, and furniture refinishing shop.

History:
The United Methodist Economic Ministry has its roots in the Sugarloaf Protestant Ministry, the Evangelical United Brethren Churches in Kingfield and Salem, and Mission at the Eastward.

In 1969 the first building was moved to Salem and set up as a thrift shop. Our facilities have grown to include a food cupboard, furniture refinishing shop, office space and work-group quarters. In over thirty years our mission has remained the same, "to clothe the naked, feed the hungry, and house the poor."
